Transforming lives with Good News in the Nation’s Capital
Oct 4, 2021
On Saturday, October 2, hundreds of pro-life individuals gathered in front of the U.S. Supreme Court for Praying for Life. It was an event to usher in the 2021-2022 SCOTUS term that could prove to be a monumental year for life, as the Court is set to hear Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
We prayed for our Supreme Court Justices as well as the police officers and S.W.A.T team members who provided a protective barrier between our group and the other protest that showed up that day—the pro-abortion Women’s March.
Though the Women’s March protesters screamed loudly and offered up some less than kind gestures, the worship music and prayers continued and outlasted the angry throng. Eventually they dispersed. It was a powerful picture of the spiritual battle that is raging around us. And we know who is victorious!
Continue to pray with us as the Court will hear oral argument for Dobbs on December 1.
Blessings in Christ,
The Faith & Liberty team

PRAYER
Please pray for LIFE in America. Pray for lives to be saved, for the women that are facing these decisions and the crisis pregnancy centers that minister to them. Pray for the Supreme Court Justices and the pivotal cases they will decide. And pray for these women who were marching in support of killing unborn babies. Pray for their eyes to open and their hearts to be convicted of the truth.
We also ask that you continue to pray for the weekly Bible studies at the Ministry Center, and pray for the congressional staffers as many are returning to their offices after the COVID shutdown.
Our efforts to bring the Word of God to bear on the hearts and minds of our public policy makers are only possible because wonderful friends like you stand with us both in prayer and in your generous financial support! Thank you!
